Buttermilk Spice Muffins
Serves: 12
Preparation Time:5 min
Cooking Time: 20 to 25 min
Muffin Batter:
1 cup Sugar
½ cup Butter or margarine
3 Eggs
2-½ cups Flour
2 tsp. Baking soda
1 tsp. Nutmeg
½ tsp. Cinnamon
¾ cup + 1 tbsp. Buttermilk
Nut Topping:
½ cup Sugar
1 cup Walnuts (finely chopped)
½ tsp. Cinnamon
½ tsp. Nutmeg
Instructions
1. Preheat oven to 375°. In a mixing bowl,
cream the sugar and the butter together with an electric
mixer. When they are thoroughly mixed, add eggs and beat one more
minute.
2. Sift the flour into a separate bowl, together
with the baking soda, nutmeg and the cinnamon.
3. Add the flour and the buttermilk to the
first mixture, mix at low speed until smooth. To avoid lumps in
the batter, add the wet and dry ingredients alternately, in
small amounts.
4. Make the nut topping: Mix all ingredients
together in a small bowl.
5. Grease muffin tins with butter or margarine.
You can also use paper baking cups. Fill each cup 3/4 full of
batter. Add a full, rounded tablespoon of nut topping on
top of each muffin cup of
batter. Bake immediately or the
topping will sink to the bottom of the
muffin.
6. Bake at 375° for 20-25 minutes, until
golden brown. A toothpick inserted in the middle of the
muffin should come out dry. Home ovens heat differently from
commercial ovens so you may need to
adjust the temperature or
the baking time accordingly.
7. Recipe yields 12 standard-size muffins,
or six Mimi's-size muffins. If using the jumbo muffin pans,
reduce the oven temperature by 25° and increase the baking time
5-10 minutes.
